THE BASICS OF DRESS SHIRT MEASUREMENTS ARE EASY

UNDERSTANDING DRESS SHIRT MEASUREMENTS

How To Measure Your Collar Size

Measure around the base of your neck where your shirt collar sits comfortably and most naturally.
Pro tip: Add 1-2 fingers in-between the measure tape and your neck to ensure space for breathing.

HOW TO MEASURE YOUR SLEEVE LENGTH

Start the measuring tape at the center back of your neck, extend the tape over the top of your shoulder and down to the point where your hand starts to widen at your wrist. 

HOW TO MEASURE YOUR CHEST

Wrap the tape measure around the widest part of your chest and back. Roughly this is right under your arms. Keep the tape measure parallel to the ground. Also take a breath in so the measurement is not constricting.

How To Measure Your Waist

Measure around your waistline which is the narrowest part of your waist. Roughly at the hight of your belly button. Stand naturally to get a correct measurement.

USE YOUR MEASUREMENTS TO FIND YOUR SIZE

Now, take the measurements you noted and compare to the sizes listed in the fit guide size chart. The measurements should roughly match up. Every man's body is slightly different and clothing has ease built-in to allow for movement. Each company adds in a different amount of ease based on their specified fit. Examples of types of fits are: traditional, fitted, slim and extra slim. Fits are a matter of preference to the brand. Our Tailored Fit is somewhat comparable to the standard classic fit just with a slightly "custom and perfectly tailored touch. Our Extra Slim is designed for narrower body types and those who prefer a slim (although not very tight, or constricting) tapered fit.
